  Looks to me like it has the same IP address it did last year 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T99531#4573965>, which is in "United Domains 
via IP Exchange GmbH 
<https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/#/query?searchtext=89.31.143.100>" space.
  
  I don't think you actually need DNS control to do Let's Encrypt, you can use 
certbot if you have shell access <https://letsencrypt.org/getting-started/>. 
united-domains.de seems to offer SSH access on its "Webspace-Packet" 
<https://www.united-domains.de/email_website/webspace> (is this what's in 
use?). I don't know if that extends to running certbot. However, you could run 
certbot on another computer and upload a challenge file 
<https://certbot.eff.org/docs/using.html#manual> via SFTP. Obviously that isn't 
ideal, but it could be scripted if necessary.
  
  That said, I //did// think about suggesting that switching or reverting 
nameservers might be appropriate if you don't plan to actually transition to 
WMF hosting. As a third-party from a non-Wikimedia project, I'm not sure if 
doing that would have any "political" fallout. I'm just trying to find a 
practical solution which results in having the HTTPS wikiba.se that I expected 
to see, given the stated constraints.
